Animals, from worms and sponges to jellyfish and whales, contain anywhere from a few thousand to tens of trillions of nearly genetically identical cells. Depending on the organism, these cells arrange ...

Mark Lynch from BioSkryb Genomics will then present a novel workflow that simplifies the isolation of single cells from a variety of samples for low-input and single-cell genomics. Learning Objectives ...

Two species of worms have retained remarkably similar patterns in the way they switch their genes on and off despite having ...

Scientists are conducting a long-term experiment on evolution to investigate how single-celled organisms could evolve into multicellular lifeforms. After thousands of generations, their yeast grew ...

It may have fewer than many of the other sciences, but biology does have two dozen or so “rules”—broad generalizations about ...

All life on Earth evolved from a single-celled organism that lived roughly 3.5 billion years ago, a new study seems to confirm. ... "Evolution," he said, "should not be given any special status." ...

LIVE Webinar. Thursday, December 2, 2021 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM Eastern Time. Register Now. Cancer progresses by acquiring mutations that increase cell survival. Sequencing single cells from a ...

Recent advances in single-cell sequencing techniques made this research possible and open up new methods to explore the connection between genes and cellular traits in crops.“A decade ago, we ...

“If you’re a single cell, you’re dinner. But if you can form large groups of cells, now you’re too big to eat.” The new findings highlight how physical forces influence biological evolution.

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take nitrogen and convert it into the ingredient that helps all organisms grow.
